Impotence affects millions of men and can be caused by a variety of psychological and physical problems. If you suffer from impotence, you need to learn how to cope with this condition.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Instructions

1. See a doctor about your impotence. The doctor can let you know treatment options and how you can cope with impotence. You may be given medications to help you achieve an erection.

2. Talk to your partner. Let her know about your feelings regarding your impotence. An understanding partner can help you cope better while dealing with the problem.

3. Go to sex therapy. This is particularly effective for men who are suffering from impotence due to psychological reasons. Most therapy sessions last for 2 to 3 months.

4. Get counseling from a psychiatrist. You may be feeling stressed and depressed about your impotence. A psychiatrist can help you deal with these feelings.

5. Try alternative sex techniques. Pleasure can be given and received even when a man suffers from impotence.

6. Look for an online support group. Many men are embarrassed to go to an in-person support group for impotence. However, an online support group gives you anonymity but still provides support from other men who suffer from the same condition. Check out the support groups on Daily Strength.
